Inaugurating the projects on different occasions, the minister of water resources and sanitation, Prof Joseph, said the commissioning of a water bottling and treatment facility at the headquarters of Hadejia Jama’are River Basin Development Authority in Kano was aimed at increasing access to potable water supply for people in the area.

He said the 100,000 litres overhead steel water tanks serviced by three boreholes and powered by hybrid solar inverters inaugurated at Masamawa in Birnin Kudu local government area of Jigawa State would provide water for 500 households, while the 200,000 litres corrugated surface steel water tank serviced by solar power at Dodo Birnin Kudu would benefit 700 households. Additionally, a 135-kilowatt capacity solar-powered water works in  Birnin Kudu is replacing the diesel-powered generators for both intake and booster pumps.

He emphasised government’s dedication to sustainable and cost-effective water treatment and distribution to ensure the delivery of essential services to all parts of the nation.
